A court in Patna on Saturday granted interim relief to popular educator and YouTuber Faisal Khan alias Khan Sir in connection with the firing case under investigation in the city.
During the hearing, the court ordered that no coercive action be taken against him until further orders. The court’s directive effectively stays Khan Sir’s arrest for the time being. Similar relief has also been extended to three members of his staff, with the court directing that no punitive action be initiated against them until the next hearing.
According to reports, the Patna Police submitted the
case diary before the court during Saturday’s proceedings. After reviewing the documents, the court fixed the next date of hearing for June 25.
Khan Sir’s counsel stated that the court has granted protection from arrest until the next hearing and that the matter will now be considered further after examining the case diary and other materials placed on record.
While Khan Sir and three staff members received relief, his two security guards will continue to remain in judicial custody. Bail applications filed on behalf of the guards are also part of the ongoing legal proceedings.
